LYNN WAS THE LOVE OF MY LIVE AND ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS. I'VE MISSED HER SO MUCH THE PAST YEAR AND WILL MISS HER EVEN MORE. WE HAD MORE FUN ARGUING THAN MOST PEOPLE DO IN A LIFETIME...SHE WAS PRECIOUS TO ME. JAMES, YOU'VE BEEN WONDERFUL TAKING CARE OF HER.

My deepest sympathy goes out to James and Lynn's family, as she has been and will be missed by all of the shuffleboard players. She was a beautiful and kind person.
